Rust, Nicole

Dr. Rust is interested in understanding the visual processing that happens at the nexus of visual perception and cognition. Her work is focused on understanding the sequence of neural events that allows the visual system to extract information about the content of the world (i.e. specific objects) from the light patterns encoded by the eye and what role memory plays in this process. She is a faculty member in the Department of Psychology and teaches BBB217 (Visual Neuroscience).
